2.61 Ct. Purplish Blue Sapphire from Madagascar

Imagine presenting a moment that takes someone's breath away, held forever in the graceful curve of a pear shape sapphire. This exquisite transparent 2.61 carat purplish blue sapphire from Madagascar glows with a vivid color intensity that shifts between royal blue and a gentle violet like twilight and a promise. At 9.01 by 6.68 by 5.50 millimeters its proportions feel both intimate and impactful, the perfect size to be the heart of a bespoke creation that will be worn and remembered forever. The mixed brilliant cut breathes life into every facet, scattering light with a lively dance, while the very slightly included clarity grade evaluated at eye level ensures that the gem reads as clean and soulful to the naked eye. With an excellent polish and a careful enhancement by heat treatment, this stone arrives ready to become the centerpiece of your most treasured custom piece, whether you envision a ring that seals a vow, a pendant that celebrates a milestone, or a pair of earrings that speak of everyday elegance.

As designers and dreamers at The Natural Sapphire Company we see how the pear shape invites so many possibilities, it flatters the finger, it elongates the neckline, it creates movement when set in a drop, and it centers attention in a halo. The tapered point of this 2.61 carat gem allows for creative setting choices, a delicate prong at the tip to secure and accentuate its silhouette, or a bezel to protect and modernize its profile. The depth of 5.50 millimeters gives the pavilion enough room to preserve brilliance, making it an excellent candidate for both prong settings that maximize light return and closed settings that favor daily wear. Imagine it set with warm rose gold to bring out the purple notes, or in cool platinum to heighten the blue, each metal revealing a different facet of the stone's personality. For an engagement ring the pear orientation can be worn with the point toward the fingertip for an elegant, elongating effect, or reversed for a contemporary twist that sits closer to the hand, every choice becoming a personal expression.

Choosing this Madagascar sapphire from The Natural Sapphire Company is choosing a story that begins under a distant sky and continues in the hands of the one who wears it. The vivid purplish blue color is rare and evocative, a hue that looks like devotion in stone, and it pairs beautifully with accent diamonds or colored sapphires to create contrasts that make it sing. As a custom jeweler you will appreciate how the mixed brilliant cut gives you flexible design room, how the 9.01 by 6.68 by 5.50 millimeter size fits classic and contemporary settings, and how the very slightly included clarity grade offers authenticity without sacrificing beauty. We can help you imagine a solitaire that becomes an heirloom, a three stone design that tells a life story, or a bespoke pendant that holds a family memory, and we will guide you through mounting, metal choice, and protective details so the gem endures. Let this pear shaped, purplish blue sapphire become the heart of your next custom design, a stone that captures a feeling, marks a moment, and shines as vividly as the emotion it represents.
